Of course, if parents ever had a daughter

they could trust, it was Robyn.

Well, the boys will be

in separate tents, dad.

And besides,

this camping trip isn't about...

... romance or anything. It's more

about getting back to nature.

You know, we're all kind of...

cooped up in this modern environment,

and I think this camping trip

will help me to help my friends

become closer to God.

Because we need to share

a spiritual connection.

If parents were present, I don't think

that I'd be able to reach these girls.

And these boys

as much as I would like to.

Are you alright, Fi?

You're looking a bit pale.

You look like you're gonna...

It's stuck in the back

of your throat, isn't it?

You're trying

to swallow it all down.

But it just keeps coming back up.

Okay, I got it.

- How much stuff do you need?

- Oh my God Ellie, look at this!

Wait, what is this? Makeup?

You never know

who you're going to meet.

Hey, you can see

Cobbler's Bay from here.

You can even see the Heron Bridge.

- How far do you reckon we've come?

- That was the easy part.

From here on, we walk.

Ready? On the count of three. One...

Give me a decent throw, sweetheart.

Let's go.

I meant to do that.

Homer, do you even know

where we're going?

There's a clearing up ahead.

This is very pretty for Hell.

I wonder how long it's been

since anyone's been down here.

I wonder if anyone has

ever been down here, I mean...

- why would anyone else've bothered?

- Maybe we're the first ones to see it.

- There's no reception. - What were

you expecting, broadband?

Couldn't hurt.

You, what's your name.

Go get some firewood, will you?

It's Lee.

Ellie, what are we having for dinner?

Two-minute noodles.

- Oh, great!

What are they?

You've never heard

of two-minute noodles?

No, my mom is really

into health foods.

It's an awesome feeling to realise you're

about to change someone's life forever.

You haven't got 2000 dollars.

Wait a sec, not one guy

asked you out last year?

No. Why would they?

Why? You're beautiful, Fi.

My mom is beautiful.

I'm just...

You remember, I had braces

for like two years.

I still wear glasses and it's not...

She was Miss Wirrawee

three years in a row.

I actually asked her

if I should enter this year,

but she didn't think

that was a good idea.

Anyway, I'm doing really well

at school at the moment, so...

... doesn't matter.

And, you know,

a guy will ask me out one day.

I just don't know when. Or who.

Which is exciting.

- Boys are idiots.

- Fun idiots.

You shall not pass.

What's that smell?

- Jet fuel.

- What?

Just a bunch of army planes

going somewhere.

El, what do you think of Fi?

I love Fi, you know that.
